Simple Answer: No

The moment you need to think about what distribution you need to choose from is where it’ll stop any (dumb)user. Most people want a simple process with very little thinking.

If you are interested in learning linux and willing to take the time to understand the entire process that comes with it then yes.

Wish we could just implement some form of federal standards that are aimed towards protecting US citizens’ data instead of just banning a service like tiktok because “China bad”.

Gotta consider users on windows download random programs and blindly follow an installation wizard.

I can’t imagine Hamas being the sole reason behind this decision. Of course at face value it is but feels like they are taking this opportunity to do this for some other reason.

Terrible nonetheless but worried about what else is to happen due to this.

I sold phones for several years. ALOT of people have no idea how to do even the first step of what you said. The process was always sell, transfer, wipe, and turn in. Transfer would require a passcode many times while going through the process, and customers would often tell you it to make the process easier. From young to old, they all need help doing that “easiest” thing.

Waste of money. Why not compete with the switch/steamdeck? Make the remote play an option like you’ve done in the past. A digital ps5 is $400 and the portal is $200. I’m paying $600 and can’t take the device anywhere. Steamdeck starts at $400 and the switch is $300. Hell, I can install remote play on the steam deck and do the same thing the portal does. Sucks this is how sony is getting back into “portable” gaming.

All the drama started from this video

Gamers Nexus then made a video breaking down a bunch of issues with LMG

Linus responded 3 hours after GN posted their video.

The response was rushed and poorly made. Gamers Nexus the next day made a response.

Which made LinusTechTips push out a video addressing some of the concerns and what they are gonna do.

Then, an ex-employee came out, stating many of the issues they had with the company.

LinusTechTips on twitter (or x i guess?) stated they are looking into it.

Philip Defranco summarizes everything within 10 minutes and includes a couple of questions they asked LMG. I thought he did pretty well, so its alot better than spending several hours looking into everything.
